, I marinade the mussels in a garlic & white wine marinade for 24 hours before making the mariniere
huh!! :omg: That's so wrong ! the mussels will be probably be dead by the time you cook them! Moules Marinières (mussels) need fresh _LIVE_ mussels to be cooked in a little bit of olive oil, shallots and white wine; and eaten right away.

Them's long dead. Good fresh mussels are not the cheapest thing in London; so I use deaded ones that are frozen 'on the beach'. I just stick 'em in a marinade for 24hrs to bring em round so that I can boil the fekers.

Stop being healthy, use butter - about 100g / kilo of mussles. I like garlic and I have garlic as well as shallots when I make them. After cooking stir in some more iced & diced butter to make a thick Marinières sauce and serve with crusty bread [for health kick peeps] or a bucket load [metric bucket, not imperial] of french fries. Moule a la Marinières is one of two dishes that can be truely complimented by french fries, the other being a good bloody steak. In all other scenarios use chips.

An imperial bucket is half 2/7ths of a pint more! :)

Probably happened after the cow was dead. Or maybe some kids daring eachother to do crazy things.

Never liked mussels until I had them in Norway in September. I'm guessing I'd always had BAD (badly prepared) mussels before...
Java, Basic, who cares - it's all a bunch of tree-hugging hippy cr*p

Okay. For the ignorant American, could you please explain the difference between "French Fries" and "chips"? We are talking about potatoes sliced into long strips and then fried in both cases, right?

The phrase "donner kebab" has an unpleasant connotation[^] :~...
